Has really got her act together over fences in recent starts, going close at Naas before a beginners' success at Punchestown and hit the crossbar having been given too much to do back at that venue latest; clearly thriving and cheekpieces may eke out more. |

9yo who is a longstanding maiden but she may well have got off the mark at Leicester (2m4f, soft) last time but for a bad mistake at the final fence; has also run well over staying trips; last time was just her second run for this yard and could make amends today off the same mark. |
